Why is he one of the most popular and beloved rappers of all time?
I know dying at a young age helped. But he's become so popular, i don't think most normies even know why he's so beloved.
Why is he one of the most popular and beloved rappers of all time?
Juan Myers
Samuel Johnson

Ryan Evans

Jack Turner
listen to all eyez on me and don killuminati theory then come back to us
Benjamin Robinson
He became a meme in the black "oldhead" hip hop community so naturally white soyboys don't dare to challenge it
Jaxson Lewis
And you think the worst of the worst joke Lil Xan is good, namefags should kill themselves
Andrew Thompson
I don't even know who this is
Srsly never heard im
David Jenkins
His dramatic death and the fact that he was one of the few to perpetuate rap as poetry. He did write a few good songs but the truth is, he's more consistently mediocre than any good. I may not like lil xan but he's right when he says Tupac is boring.
Jordan Butler
His music was decent. Not exceptional, but good enough that it bolstered his rep when his death made him a quasi-martyr.

Look... You're not special or "brave" for thinking he's overrated. I don't Know why it's unfathomable to you that someone might consider 2pac as one of the best rappers of all is shit/overrated have never listend to his entire discography, strictly 4 my n.i.g.g.a.z and Me against the world are both great hiphop albums.

Quit being contrarian edgelords, 2pac is a rap ledgend. His flow and delivery are obviously 10/10. Lyricism is mm maybe 6/10? But that's not the type of rapper he was so who gives a shit? He made some of the best rap albums of the 90s and continues to affect hiphop culture more than 20 years after his death. One of the greatest to ever do it.

"No."
Also, "anyone who doesn't agree with me is just a contrarian edgelord!" Fuck of back to plebbit, and finish your bottle of soylent.

Who cares what a board of white boys think about Tupac?

Reminder that this was an accident that occurred due to a stray bullet from his crew. That being said it doesn't make it any better and he should have gotten 25 to life.
As for OP's prompt, I listened to all eyes on me and Don Killuminati yesterday to figure out what all of the hype is about. To be completely honest, I think I get it. The flows that Tupac uses are literally all industry standards now. Also, Tupac was one of the first rappers to make a rap track that was purely pop (thats just the way it is) and have radio presence. On top of that, though his lyricism is lacking in quite a few tracks, there are times where his bars are fucking great. Like in the already mentioned "thats just the way it is" song. I can see how his stuff would sound boring to a modern hiphop listener, however. I think it's because the standards and methods he pioneered have become so omnipresent and developed that their original source appears primitive and uninspired. This is totally excusable, but please try to understand that he truly was the first nigga to do it like this. Also, I would like to note that Tupac was receiving industry attention at age 13 due to his raw talent. I would also like to note that literally 10+ rappers died from getting shot in the 90's and none of them has a reputation like Tupac. (Biggie comes close, but his cultural impact and total record sales fall short of Tupacs')
